ありがとう 台湾!


台湾 (たいわん) の aid effort was brought to my attention during 日本の struggles through the tsunami/nuclear fallout disaster.

It goes to show the close ties many 台湾人 feel towards 日本 (though unfortunately not all) and the great good that can come out of this compassion. As 日本 continues to recover from this serious blow, I (and many other 台湾人) wish  the very best!
